Evil Dead's Sam Raimi and Fede Alvarez Reteam for A Man in the Dark

Sam Raimi is reuniting with Fede Alvarez and Rodo Sayagues, the duo behind 2013's remake of Raimi's cult horror flick Evil Dead, on a different kind of feature.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, Alvarez will direct the thriller A Man in the Dark, with Raimi set to produce. Alvarez will also reteam with his Evil Dead co-writer Sayagues on the script, which centers on three teens who carry out perfectly planned home robberies. However, the group runs into trouble when they take on their final target: a reclusive, psychopathic millionaire.

Alvarez seemed to have parted ways with the Evil Dead franchise, saying that he and Sayagues "preferred to put [their] energies on other things," but he later contradicted the report. Meanwhile, Raimi is in talks to direct the adaptation of Matthew Quick's upcoming novel Love May Fall.
